Car Key Replacement
Losing every key feels like a disaster, and it is the job we do most often. We identify the vehicle from its VIN, obtain the key code and immobiliser data through our manufacturer access, then cut and program a new key at the car.
What is included
Specialist work, completed at the vehicle
- All keys lost, including vehicles that cannot be started or opened
- Worn, bent, snapped or non-turning keys
- Basic, transponder, remote head, laser-cut and smart keys
- Old lost keys erased from vehicle memory on most models
Ownership verification: have the vehicle registration or ownership and your driver's licence ready. We check both on every key job.
The practical difference
Your driveway, not a dealership waiting room
We work from legitimate manufacturer security data at your vehicle, with the number fixed before dispatch.

Common questions
Questions about car key replacement
How long does an all-keys-lost job take?+
Usually 30 to 90 minutes once we arrive. Some push-to-start systems impose a security wait that no tool can shorten.
Can you work in an underground garage?+
Yes, provided we can access it. If mobile service is poor, we may retrieve the data at street level first.
What if the car is at a tow yard?+
We attend regularly. Bring ownership and your licence, and arrange site access with the yard.
Do I need the VIN before I call?+
It helps, but year, make and model are enough for us to quote.
